They say Mother Nature is unpredictable and she didn’t disappoint!

We excel in supplying turnkey floating pontoon platforms for bridge maintenance projects, so we were very happy this Autumn to provide a client with a floating pontoon solution for a canal bridge project near Birmingham.

Our planners envisioned the Cubisystem floating access platform to be offloaded with our HIAB, built next to the canal and gently positioned into place under the bridge ready for operations to begin. And our team confirmed that strategically, this deployment would be a simple process of following a well practiced procedure - then during the early morning hours it SNOWED!

No worries - we’ve got this.

A blanket of fluffy white snow and ice covered the area we had previously designated to build, launch and position our floating platform! Despite freezing temperatures and a HIAB in the snow, we took each step of the mobilisation process carefully and our expertise prevailed. We managed to off-load, assemble and place the pontoon platform within 3 hours - which incidentally, was the estimated timeframe for the job without the snow!

Our pontoon platform hire package performed brilliantly - on time and on budget. Proving yet again, that Pontoon Provider achieves on-water - and in snow!
